this is a very simple document that outlines some of the important
details about the mod_perl svn repository.
LAYOUT
the mod_perl project at the Apache Software Foundation lives here
http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/perl/
and uses the following structure
modperl/trunk # equivalent to cvs HEAD - currently
# the mod_perl 2.0 development branch
modperl/tags # every official mod_perl release
modperl/docs/trunk # the mod_perl documentation project
modperl/trunk includes the following svn:externals properties:
% cd modperl
% svn propedit svn:externals .

you should follow the following steps to checkout mod_perl
